Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of the Environment.
Two weeks ago, in response to my question concerning the Tokamak project in Varennes, the Minister of Natural Resources said it was unlikely that any results in the short term, say within five or ten years, could help further issues like climate change.
Does the minister recognize that the impact of climate change will be extremely long lasting and that a sound vision for the future in this respect depends on research and development of renewable energy of the type that was being conducted at Tokamak in Varennes?
